Using your radioisotope half life and decay constant of Sodium 24, 15 hours. Solve the following scenario. A bone fragment was discovered on the grounds of VC, and the fragment was found to contain 12 grams of your isotope. In its original state, this same item would contain 315 grams of your isotope. How old is this fragment? solve for time. Show all algebraic steps to solve this problem for t (time). Give the exact answer and the decimal approximation rounded to 2 decimal places. Be sure to label the unit of time. Summarize your findings of what you have collected. Explain any inconsistencies, interesting facts or conclusions that you see.
